Amid a record-breaking year in product production, security technology manufacturer Paxton has expanded its Senior Team by appointing Blair Bowen as Global Manufacturing Manager.
The security technology manufacturer Paxton has broken all its earlier manufacturing records, with the busiest production period in the company’s 37-year history. To support this growth, it is currently hiring for a variety of roles on its career page and appointed Bowen, who previously managed manufacturing teams for Collins Aerospace and Jaguar Land Rover.
Bowen said: “What really attracted me to Paxton is the people and culture. I have spent the last 12 years working in a blue-chip large corporation environment. This is an opportunity to come to a growing organisation, get that breadth of exposure, and broaden my horizons across multiple elements of the business.”
Bowen is based at Paxton’s main UK manufacturing facility in Eastbourne, East Sussex. His role is integral to the company’s growth plans over the coming years. They are currently set to expand production lines and add more manufacturing space to meet the increase in demand internationally for their security systems.
Bowen added: “There is a real focus on developing our manufacturing process in our pursuit to be world class. I will be looking at our manufacturing operating strategy. This will essentially grow the team and build up our current employee’s roles and responsibilities.
“At Paxton what I see is a team that are passionate about their products, and passionate about the people. I feel I have an easy job as I have not necessarily got to motivate them.
“Having passionate people from the off is a good indicator for success moving forward and seeing them succeed motivates me. It is a driving factor in my role that gets me extremely excited.”
“Since starting, my decision to join Paxton has been re-confirmed. The business does really care and does have a focus on people and its culture. The aspirations I have for a higher level of decision making and breadth of exposure are coming true.
“I feel like I have made the right decision in joining the Paxton brand.”
